Sabot at Stony Point is an independent school for children in preschool through 8th grade, located in the Bon Air neighborhood of Richmond, Virginia. We are accredited by SACS-CASI (Southern Association of Colleges and Schools - Council on Accreditation and School Improvement) and VISA (Virginia Independent School Association).
We believe that learning is a life-long journey, not an activity that begins and ends with school. Children are naturally inquisitive and motivated to learn. But school plays a pivotal role in sustaining their thirst for knowledge and in cultivating the discipline and critical habits of mind that last a lifetime. We prepare students to thrive in competitive academic settings, but we never lose sight of the journey itself.
